Here come the ducklings

It has been a very VERY exciting week!  Our duck eggs hatched!  In fact we had a perfect hatch this year.  We were very nervous for egg 3, but after some time along and some help from Mrs. Wanke, the duck from egg 3 hatched.

We noticed that some of our eggs were starting to pip.

Those pips quickly turned to holes. 

Then finally our first baby duck hatched!

Egg 3 was stuck in the egg.  We moved him to his own incubator and added in some wet paper towels for extra humidity.  When Mrs. Wanke came back Tuesday night he was still stuck.  So, she had to help him out.

He came to her house for a little extra TLC.  Mrs. Wanke's daughter, Ashley, named him Fin, because fin means warrior and he was a warrior!


Today our very last egg hatched.  We were in library at the time.  Mrs. Wanke video taped it for us since we haven not been able to witness a hatching yet.
